In the Caribbean, salt fish, also called bacalao, bacalhau, baccalà  or dried fish, is fresh, meaty white fish (typically cod) that has been preserved for longer storage by salt-curing and drying until all the moisture has been extracted.
In addition to the ever-popular codfish, other common fish that are salt-cured and dried include pollack, snapper, and shark. The name “salt cod,” however, has become somewhat of a generic term and will be used to describe the dried fish even if it is not codfish.
